Bellew: Fury's style won't work against Usyk

Former world heavyweight champion Tony Bellew continues to insist that Alexander Usik will confidently win against Tyson Fury in a fight for all titles in the heavyweight division.

“I don’t think anyone will beat Usyk. I don’t think anyone will beat him. I've been talking about this for a long time. The crazy thing about this is that I think that when Fury was working with his uncle, he would have beaten Usyk. But his style has changed, and now he is an aggressive counter-puncher, and that will not work against Usyk.

I think he has a chance as a puncher now, but he's not a big puncher. Honestly, I think Fury is a great fighter, I'm not taking anything away from him. What he's done at heavyweight is amazing, but I think Usyk is the best heavyweight in the world," Bellew said.

The Usyk-Fury fight is expected to take place on May 18 in Riyadh.
